Matthew looked at Ye Qing's somewhat flustered face.
Zheng Ming, who had dealt with Ye Qing many times and knew something about Ye Qing's temperament, just looked at him calmly and did not expose it.
The corridor was extremely silent.
Ye Qing once again raised his hands in panic and said: "Sir, I dare to guarantee with my life that when I leave, the key will not pass through the hands of anyone else."
After looking at Ye Qing's Matthew a few more times, he continued to move forward.
Zheng Ming and Ye Qing hurriedly followed.
However, Zheng Ming deliberately blocked Ye Qing's steps, causing him to stagger a few steps.
Ye Qing, who had stabilized his body, looked at Zheng Ming's tall and majestic body. He was not angry, but just smiled calmly.
In the dark cell.
Many torches brought bright orange light, illuminating the prison like daylight.
In the past, there were only hazy scenes in his eyes. This moment of clarity made Ye Qing feel a little uncomfortable.
Inside the prison cell in Huaiyang.
Zhao Wu and Wang Liu, with bloodshot eyes and haggard expressions, were being interrogated by bad people.
After seeing the three Matthews.
Zhao Wu and Wang Liu both shrank their necks, and then looked at Ye Qing expectantly.
Matthew, with sharp eyes, could see the changes in their expressions.
He looked at Ye Qing coldly and said, "Go in and be questioned."
"Yes, sir!"
Ye Qing hurriedly responded, his expression showing frightened panic.
After he entered the prison cell.
Only then did Zheng Ming speak: "Sir, I suggest that you investigate Ye Qing thoroughly. He is not as bad as he appears."
Unbearable?
Matthew knew that Zheng Ming said these two words very euphemistically.
He said coldly: "As long as we find out that he has nothing to do with Wang Datou, we can eliminate the suspicion."
"yes."
After Zheng Ming agreed, he glanced at Ye Qing without any hesitation, then followed Matthew with his eyes and nose intently.
More than half an hour later.
Ye Qing looked tired after being asked several questions back and forth countless times.
He was the only one left in the prison cell at the moment.
Suddenly, he said to the bad guy: "Brother, please call the official, I have something to say."
Ye Qing has already registered himself with the bad guys and is facing Ye Qing's application.
The bad guy ignored him and continued to ask questions.
Wow!
This time, Ye Qing did not answer. He stood up and shouted loudly: "Sir, I have something to say."
The bad guy's expression changed drastically, and he raised the whip in his hand angrily.
Just when he was about to fall.
Matthew, who was standing outside the prison cell at some unknown time, said, "Speak!"
The unwilling villain slowly put down his whip, glared at Ye Qing fiercely, stood up and bowed to Matthew, who was standing behind him at some point.
Ye Qing glanced at the bad guy, and Matthew immediately waved his hand to let him out.
Then, Ye Qing motioned for Matthew to come closer and whispered in his ear: "Yesterday, my subordinates went to check Wang Datou's home and found that there was nothing in the middle main room on the north side."
"And the house on the east side of the north side is filled with food."
"This is not what should happen in a butcher's home."
Hearing this, Matthew's pupils shrank sharply, he stared at Ye Qing and asked slowly:
"Why didn't you tell me just now?"
Ye Qing said quickly: "I was just confused and didn't think of this matter."
"The bad guy asked me just now, and while I was thinking about it, I suddenly remembered this strange thing."
Matthew's face was gloomy and uncertain, and after a moment he said:
"This is the end of your interrogation, please go back to the government office."
"Yes, sir!"
Ye Qing, who felt like he was being pardoned, bowed to Matthew with gratitude and joy on his face.
After Ye Qing left, Matthew called Zheng Ming and asked:
"Do you have any clues about that thing that you have been staring at before?"
Thinking of that big and involved case.
Zheng Ming clasped his fists and bowed, and said respectfully: "Some clues have been found, and the subordinate Anzhuang is secretly investigating!"
Then Zheng Ming whispered something to Matthew.
When Matthew heard this, his already gloomy expression seemed like an abyss.
After a few breaths, Matthew said to Zheng Ming: "After He Wuzuo finishes the autopsy, he will submit the autopsy report to me."
After saying that, without waiting for Zheng Ming to respond, Matthew left quickly.
In the duty room of Huaiyang Mansion.
Matthew, with a solemn expression, bowed to Chen Yuming and said:
"Lord Magistrate, the dead prisoner Wang Datou may be related to those people."
Chen Yuming, whose pupils shrank sharply, stroked his shiny beard and said majestically:
"I understand."
Then, Chen Yuming looked at Matthew with twinkling eyes and asked aloud:
"Do you think the prefect needs to intervene now?"
Matthew thought for a few breaths and said solemnly:
"Your Majesty, my subordinates feel that we should remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances and just continue to send people to follow."
Chen Yuming, who looked ugly, asked:
"What if those people are innocent?"
Matthew said seriously and sincerely: "I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go. Sir, don't worry."
